The empire itself, a mountain village in Guizhou.

Tao Zhixing sat in front of his small building, looking at the whole village. This is a village located deep in the mountains of Guizhou, Yinjia Village.

It is rumored that the ancestors of the Tao family hid in the depths of the mountains to take refuge, but now generations have passed, but it has been 1953.

"Alas, there are fewer and fewer people, last year there were 11 households, this year there are only five."

Tao Zhixing is the head of Yinjia Village, 45 years old this year, born in 1908, rich experience, from poverty and hardship, when he was a child, there was no milk to drink, only relying on the neighbor's rice soup to make breakfast to feed.

Looking at the empty and uninhabited village in front of him, and then looking up at the surrounding mountains, Tao Zhixing seemed to recall the bits and pieces of the past 40 years.

In 1920, the Southwest People's Army made the most trouble, and when he conquered half of Yunnan, he was 12 years old, did not go to school, and was herding cattle at home.

That year, a young man who had gone out to study in the village came back, and he still remembered his name, Tao Wangzhi.

Tao Wangzhi returned to his hometown, on the one hand, to save his relatives, and on the other hand, to propagate revolutionary ideas.

12-year-old Tao Zhixing, that year was already a half-grown child, although illiterate, but young and potential, is an important object of Tao Wangzhi's development.

"Brother, come with us, the people's revolution over there in Bashu is in full swing now, the People's Army has occupied most of Sichuan and Yunnan, and now they are marching to Guangxi, and it is the best time for us to join in."

Defend the homeland and defend the country, recover China, and realize the great dream of many generations of our countrymen......"

Tao Wangzhi's words are very literary, and his mouth is foaming and his blood is flying.

However, Tao Zhixing was still too timid that year, and Zhiwu replied for a long time, "I heard that people will die in war, I, I'm afraid of death." ”

Tao Wangzhi was slightly stunned and said, "For the cause of the nation, everyone is willing to throw their heads and spill their blood." Of course, in addition to this, there is also a military salary to get, several new dollars a month, which is more profitable than working as a foreign worker in the city.

They are also full, big steamed buns, rice, unlimited amounts, a few dishes and a soup, tsk, the newspapers are all published, the meat is greedy. ”

After these words, a total of 5 young people in the village were willing to go with him, Tao Zhixing was still hesitant, and said half-loudly: "I, I'm still not going, wait, wait until I go back and ask my dad to see." ”

So, that night, Tao Wangzhi took a few young people and lit torches to look for the revolution.

Tao Wangzhi didn't know what happened in the middle, but he just remembered that when he was 35 years old, Tao Wangzhi came back.

Obediently, it's terrible, I still remember Tao's trip to this day.

The brand-new major military uniform, with a murderous look on his body, and I don't know how many enemies he killed on the battlefield.

brought a daughter-in-law who was several years younger than him, a schoolgirl in the city, and that was called a beautiful one.

Tao Zhixing compared her with his yellow-faced mother-in-law, and he was embarrassed to introduce that it was his daughter-in-law.

Tao Wangzhi came back that year, specially hired a car to pull the New Year's goods, just the car on the 200 pounds of pigs is greedy, with the bag of all kinds of new ideas, sacks of candy, people from the village entrance to open the bag began to hair, no matter who it is, shouting uncle will give a handful of sugar, shouting old buddy old brother to say hello is a pack of cigarettes.

The spacious, Tao Wangzhi's family also followed, and the whole family went to the city, and it was a house in Guiyang City, saying that it was a military community, a super-large community of tens of thousands of households, all of which were distributed by local soldiers in Guizhou, purchased by themselves, and bought in installments with loans.

Later, there was no news of Tao Wangzhi for 10 years in a blink of an eye, but the villagers occasionally spread that he was promoted again and made meritorious contributions, until 1947, Tao Wangzhi actually appeared on TV, at that time, he was already a major general.

"I have watched Wangzhi since I was a child, and I feel that he has the life of a general, our country does not even have 1,000 generals, he is one, in the future, I am afraid that it will be rare to return to this hometown."

When the villagers talk about Tao Wangzhi like this, Tao Zhixing will fantasize a little: if he followed back then, would he be a platoon commander or company commander now?

In the eyes of his daughter-in-law, this is the first time Tao Zhixing did not seize the opportunity, of course, Tao Zhixing laughed at himself and said, I want to leave back then, how can you and your mother.

The second turning point of fate came from immigration.

"Well, the staff from the town are here, and they are pulling flags to recruit immigrants."

This was 36 years ago, and the staff of the New Deal Axe came to the village to spread the word about immigration.

When Tao Zhixing passed by, he also took a flyer, and the staff enthusiastically explained it to him.

"Come, fellow, take a look at our leaflet."

Tao Zhixing saw a large number of pictures printed on those leaflets, the endless land, and all kinds of harvest crops, and many people stood next to the harvest crops, happy to close their mouths.

"Where is this?"

"Fellow, this is our Beihai Province."

"Beihai Province?"

"Yes, our Beihai Province, which was the Siberia of the old Maozi, has now been recaptured by us. It's a little colder, but in the south, the land and pastures are wide, and you can contract a forest farm......

The staff explained for a long time, Tao Zhixing listened to it but was very tempted, providing houses, per capita land share of 100 acres, and also providing interest-free loans, no need to pay for the road expenses, unified transportation, unified catering.

Tao Zhixing is very tempting, everything in Yinjia Village is good, but the conditions are poor, although the political axe has developed the cultivation of medicinal materials in recent years, and every household has developed a lot, but it is not as good as this.

Hundreds of acres of land, once harvested, that's a huge number.

Moreover, now that there are more and more people growing medicinal herbs, and the income is also declining, the political axe is considering the relocation of the village, but the villagers are against it.

"Don't look at the cold over there when it's dozens of degrees below zero, but we will have central heating......"

"What? Dozens of degrees below zero, this is okay. ”

When Tao Zhixing heard it, he was afraid, how can it be rectified at dozens of degrees below zero? If you go, you can't freeze to death, you have a life to make money and you don't have a life to spend.

So, he took the leaflet home, and then, there was no more.

This is a second chance.

Then, the third time was to emigrate to the Far East, and he was equally afraid of the cold. The fourth time was to emigrate to the Philippines and Indonesia, and he was too hot, and it was the territory of the barbarians.

The fifth, emigration to Europe, went further......

Sixth, Canada......

Seventh, the United States......

Before I knew it, the time had come to 1953, during which time the opportunity was missed seven or eight times, the outward migration of families, the emigration of immigrants, until the most recent time, the opportunity to emigrate came again.

"The latest news, Changqing Star Immigration has begun to apply for registration......"

While newspapers and television stations were overwhelmingly reporting on it, many people were struggling.

If the North Sea, Europe, and the United States are still on one planet, then Changqing Star is not too far away.

Is it safe?

Is there anything to eat?

Will there be dead people?

Too many people are excited, but many more are afraid, especially since this application is still limited.

Although many people are very excited about those lands, when they think that they are going to leave the earth, Mom, how dare they do something that their ancestors have never done for generations.

There are not many applicants in the first batch, 100,000 people apply, and there will be 80,000 people in the customs clearance quota, mainly in terms of physical, willpower, conduct, and immigration needs.

"The child's father, as long as you think about it, we will follow you, the child is in the county seat and his third uncle's house is studying, anyway, the school is in charge, the two of us go to Changqingxing, 500 acres of land, it is said that we also specialize in making money......"

Although his wife, Sister Hao, is also in her forties, but seeing so many villagers who have made a fortune and returned to their hometowns, she has long been envious.

There is a political axe, there is an empire, there is an emperor, and the others, what are you afraid of?

Tao Zhixing hesitated for a long time, and hundreds of millions of worries flashed in his heart, and after a long time, he extinguished the cigarette butt and made up his mind, "Go, why don't you go, I still want to make money as soon as possible to buy two better gene needles, if I don't go, I can only wait for the next life to regret it." ”

made up his mind, Tao Zhixing did not delay, directly called his son who was at home during the holiday, and wrote an application letter of more than 3,000 words, writing his regrets over the years, his determination, his thoughts on life, and his dreams.

Just a central meaning: let me go to Changqingxing.

Soon, the staff in the town sent a reply letter, and Tao Zhixing's family's application was approved, and the 10 households in the village became 9 households, and the others were still in the limelight, and they wanted to wait for Tao Zhixing to try it first.

So, everything went naturally.

Tao Zhixing added his third brother as one of the child's guardians, and then according to the unified arrangement of the Imperial Immigration Bureau, he came to Yanjing Hanjing for the first time, and then took a spaceship larger than a mountain for the first time.

Then, the spaceship flew into space, and together with several other spaceships, passed through the jump gate, although he didn't understand these, but Tao Zhixing and his family knew that it only took him a short time, from getting on the ship to Changqingxing, in the blink of an eye.

What is a leap and what is a light year, these pottery trips are as ignorant as many immigrants on ships.

They even worry that when they get there, they won't even have a place to buy hoes...... When they saw the green Changqing Star and the even more fantastic Avatar Star next to them, everyone was boiling.

"Passengers, our destination is about to arrive, welcome to Changqing Star ......"

Tao Zhixing, along with more than 70,000 other immigrants, came to Changqingxing.

Although the planet is beautiful, it is only a settlement, not even a city.

Then, the people of the political axe immigration office began to allocate tents, began to register, and began to choose land.

On the third day, Tao Zhixing, under the leadership of the immigration officer, took a flying car to a fertile hillside.

"No, from here to there, this land that has been accurately measured is your choice, and you can lease it for a period of time in the future."

Following the staff's hand, Tao Zhixing almost didn't see the end at a glance.

His heart was completely shocked: "Mom, no wonder those people have made a fortune, so much land, let me plant it for a few years, and it will be fully mechanized planting, it is difficult not to get rich." ”
